Today I ran PythonWin and accidentally typed 'python' at the interactive prompt out of habit, since I often use the cmd prompt instead. PythonWin immediately crashed. I re-ran PythonWin and tried again. Same crash. Ran again...typed 'import os'. No crash, but the interactive prompt hung. Anything typed at the interactive prompt now hangs.

I have removed and reinstalled pywin32. I even removed and reinstalled my entire Python 2.6.1 installation (including deleting any Python-related keys in the registry). It still doesn't work :'(

Python itself (run from the command line) gives the expected:

Python 2.6.1 (r261:67517, Dec 4 2008, 16:51:00) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
python
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'python' is not defined

Any ideas how to get PythonWin working again? Anyone else see the same issue (don't try this on your favorite system). I will file a bug on SourceForge.
